Tàmh: Works by Amelia Humber

19 October - 23 November 2024 Inverness
  • Overview
    Tàmh - meaning to rest, stay or stillness, quietness
    This selection of work continues to depict snapshots of the UK, with an emphasis on the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.
     
    I am excited to be showing this body of work in Scotland - the place that has inspired and will continue to inspire a huge part of my practice. After living in the Cairngorm National Park earlier in my career, I continue to visit Scotland as and when I can.

    The force of nature, wild landscapes and breathtaking scenery will forever remind me that the most important element of my work is to get outside, away from the pressures of life and observe and enjoy the landscape that will infuse and amplify my ideas back in the studio.
     
    My hope is that I can recreate elements of specific points in time, a space where the viewer finds their moment of calm; their personal link to a memory of a landscape that has stayed with them. A place of contemplation and quietness.
